Seeing that their opponents are not paying attention to their approaching step by step, maybe they have other plans? Christina secretly reminded herself that as the leader of the Royal Knights team, she must keep a clear mind at all times and must not be careless. The honor of being a royal knight is supreme and must never be lost in your own hands.
Christina knows that Team Leis is a very powerful team of adventurers. Although their cooperation is still far behind her, some of their team members have the ability to influence the outcome of the game. During the game, even if you are negligent for just a few seconds, your opponent may seize the opportunity to launch a fatal blow.
The mage of Simone's team who had blessed himself with the "Stoneskin Technique" was still beaten unconscious by Alan Duo's heavy blow. Bailey, the captain of the Thunder Repair Team, was also knocked unconscious by Ryan even if he activated the powerful "Void Protection". The use of a dagger to the vital point of his throat was enough to illustrate the strength of some members of Raisi's team.
Christina whispered a series of orders to her team members. She constantly adjusted their formations, allowing Calvin, Wendy, and White to pretend to expose weaknesses and lure their opponents to attack.
Calvin, Wendy, and White faithfully carried out Christina's orders. Calvin pretended to be impatient and "rashly" attacked Oz at the front of the Lacey team. Oz raised his shield to block Calvin's war hammer, and then pushed Calvin away without fighting back.
Wendy took advantage of Calvin's retreat and rushed forward, occupying Calvin's original position. The long sword in his hand drew several dazzling arcs in the air, trying to disturb Alando's sight and lure him to sink. You can't hold back your anger and attack yourself.
Allendo just glanced at Wendy, unmoved at all. However, Ryan, who was behind Allendo, leaned out half of his body and gently raised his left hand, a small ball of flame jumping in his hand.
The dazzling flames reflected in Wendy's eyes, surprising him. Wendy quickly retreated, placing herself within the protection of her teammates. This young magician named Ryan can defeat Bailey, who is known as the "Magic Genius of the Imperial Capital", so he must not be careless in the slightest.
White saw that his two companions failed, so he changed his approach, took a few steps out, separated from his teammates, and pretended to be trying to bypass Oz, who was in front of the Leis team, to attack Faras.
It stands to reason that White's move is very risky. The Leisi team can let him pass, then block his teammates and concentrate their efforts to knock him down.
However, the Leisi team did not go as Christina expected. Farasi reached out and released a flame burning, blocking White's forward direction. Then Oz moved slightly to the right, blocking White's forward path.
Seeing his opponent's tight defense, White had no choice but to retreat slowly.
The first trial of the Royal Knights team ended like this.
In this tentative attack, the Leisi team performed very calmly. It seemed that their opponent was not the Royal Knights team that had dominated the Royal Athletic Competition for twenty years. They did not have the nervousness and impatience of other opponents at all. On the contrary The Leisi team showed great patience, and their intensive defense made Christina feel a little helpless in her heart.
Limited to the teachings of the Church of Light and the beliefs of the Holy Knights, the Holy Knights will never use long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows to fight. However, as a result, the Royal Knights team lacks the advantage of long-range combat when facing the enemy's intensive defense. Lack of effective offensive means.
On the battlefield, this is not obvious. Because when the Holy Knights engage in large-scale operations, they are usually equipped with an elite crossbowman corps behind them for long-range support, and the Royal Knights' cavalry charge is enough to destroy most enemies' dense defenses, even the denser the opponent's formation. , the Royal Knight's charging effect will be better.
But when they arrived at the Royal Arena, Christina had to admit that the method used by the Leisi team today was the best one to deal with her. The Leisi team had two magicians who had no shortage of long-range attack methods, and there was also a melee magician. The warrior and a transformed druid, together with the assistance of the priest, formed a simple but very effective combat system.
"Is there anyone among the opponents who understands military affairs?" A thought suddenly popped up in Christina's mind: "Otherwise, how could Team Leis perform like this? However, in the Holy Alliance Empire, only a handful of people would have the opportunity to do so. How can ordinary people come into contact with learning about combat, command, and strategy?"
Christina remained calm on the surface, but in her heart she was thinking quickly about the information she had seen about the members of Team Rais in the past few days. She clearly remembered when the young magician Faras was studying magic at the Royal Academy of Magic. He has only studied aristocratic etiquette, which is normal for a noble. The priest named Reid has lived in the Church of Light since he was a child. He spends most of his time worshiping his Lord God and training as a priest. He has no time to study military affairs at all.
Christina believed that the person among her opponents who was proficient in military affairs was definitely not the two of them, because as nobles and priests, they had no chance of commanding an army on the battlefield.
"Then it must be someone else. Who could it be?" Christina eliminated them one by one in her mind: "That soldier was a mercenary before, mainly in the Seawind City area. Later, Farasi and the others joined Leisi when they went to Seawind City. As a mercenary in the team, it is unlikely that he would be exposed to this aspect, otherwise there would be no need for him to be an ordinary mercenary for so long.
The druid named Alando is indeed very powerful, but the druids are known to be brave in combat, but they are only limited to small-scale battles. They live in seclusion all year round, how can they have a dedicated military academy to study systematically
"Is it the young magician?" Christina came to this conclusion after ruling out all possibilities. But what confuses Christina is where did this young magician named Ryan learn all this military knowledge
While Christina was filled with confusion, a flaw inevitably appeared in the Royal Knights team. This flaw appeared very briefly, but Faras noticed it immediately, and a small ball of red flame immediately appeared in her hand. Faras was about to use a "fireball" to tear apart the opponent's tight formation, but she just chanted a spell, Ryan stopped him with his hands.
